LESSON 3

I reiterated two important features which you do when posting:

1. LABEL
To create and tag LABELs to each of the post. Make sure the good work shall have 'portfolio' tag. On the other hand, avoid creating too many labels.

2. EXTERNAL LINK
Make sure links to external site shall launch new window/tab. Insert target="_blank" in the href link by clicking on 'Edit Html' tab (next to 'Compose'). Like this:

before: <a href="http://whatever.com/">LINK</a>
after: <a href="http://whatever.com/" target="_blank">LINK</a>

VIDEO
Also, we had gone through the process of putting video in your post.

1. Register an account in YouTube
2. Re-export video using iMovie. Either:
2.1 Use Preset of 'Web Streaming' OR
2.2 Use Expert Setting with following considerations:
  • Video Setting -> Mpeg 4 Video
  • Video Size -> 320 x 240 pixel
  • Sound -> Mono
  • YouTube can accept quicktime .mov
